Chickens

There are 5 Chicken Breeds in Animania. Each has slightly different drops and resources. For instance, the Orpington drops the best meat, while the Wyandotte lays brown eggs, and Leghorns lay eggs the fastest.

Care

Food

• Chickens eat seeds (all vanilla seeds).
• Seeds can be scattered on the ground by right-clicking while holding seeds.
• Can be hand fed seeds.

Water

• Will drink from water filled troughs, or water blocks such as ponds, rivers and lakes.
• You can also fill up a water bucket and give them a drink manually.
• Unlike pigs and cows, they do not consume a full water block or bucket.

Nests

For a hen to lay eggs, she must be happy (fed and watered) and have access to a nest. You can pluck the eggs from the nest, or if you have a rooster in the coop leave them to hatch into chicks.
